Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
The PDV-0701A portable DVD player from Polaroid Electronics lets you enjoy your movies, music, and digital photos when you're on the road or relaxing in the comfort of your own home. Its autosensing power adapter (AC 100 to 240V, 50/60 Hz) makes it perfect for international use, too -- a great companion for business or pleasure. The book-thin, MP3-friendly player features a broad, 7-inch LCD configured in a widescreen (16:9) aspect ratio whose dimensions closely approximate those of your favorite contemporary movies. A supplied rechargeable lithium-ion battery keeps your discs spinning for three to four hours between charges, and the player also comes with separate AC and DC power adapters for use indoors, in cars and boats -- you name it.

The PDV-0701A also offers built-in stereo speakers for headphones-free listening, picture zoom, and compatibility with DVD-Video, CD-R, CD-RW, and MP3-encoded discs -- not to mention digital photos stored as JPEG images on recordable CD (you can rotate and zoom on these, as well). Dolby Digital 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio output (through a .125-inch minijack-to-RCA coaxial cable, not supplied) for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver.

Use the supplied AV interconnects to hook the player up with your television and/or stereo system. Playback options include frame-by-frame slow motion, forward and reverse play, and multiple-angle viewing (with applicable discs). Headphones are not included, though you do get a handy splitter for listening with a friend.

What's in the Box
DVD player, battery pack, headphone splitter, an auto-switching AC power adapter, DC vehicle adapter, audio/video interconnects, and a user's manual.

1 out of 5 stars Terrible!.......2007-06-07

Oh but it worked just fine while under warranty - 3 months. Then all I get is black and white. Do you think my 3 kids want to watch black and white movies all the way to Florida? Buy something else. Oh yeah, when I call customer service they basically told me 'too bad, you are out of warranty. only thing we can do is replace it for $90.00' Uh, I don't think so...

4 out of 5 stars Good DVD player.......2007-03-05

I bought this item and it worked perfectly fine. When I received my Xbox 360 I was planning to take it on the road and play it on the DVD player. The only problem was, unlike most DVD players, it did not have any where to plug it at. So if you are planning to play your PS2,XBox, or other consoles don't but this product.

1 out of 5 stars Mine was garbage and poor warranty (90 days) Buy another brand!.......2007-02-10

I rarely give bad revues, but my experience with this DVD & a digital camera were so bad that I say two thumbs down to Polaroid.

I had an Initial and my daughter used it constantly for about a year. Then one day somebody stole it. I must have not locked the doors. :-(

This Polaroid was the replacement for that Initial. I used it once or twice and was unimpressed. By then the little one was more interested in the conversation in the car and she never used it. It sat safely in my closet for about 1 year. When I took it of of the shelf and tried to use it there was no picture.

The warranty was only for 90 days so I'm stuck. They offered to swap it out for $100. I can buy a new replacement for less!

I thought that this one was kinda thick & clunky and I really didn't like it much. I had a Polaroid digital camera which was very difficult to use and took lousy pictures, so they let me down twice. I had a few of their film cameras which were great, but based on these two items, I'll be getting a different brand replacement.

3 out of 5 stars You get what you pay for.......2006-12-23

and in my case, it was free. Our company gave it to employees for Christmas '04. I only use it on long flights or train rides, about once a month, and it still works just fine. The only problem I've had, aside from the short battery life, is that the battery doesn't seem to fit very securely and I have to be careful when moving the unit while it's playing, or I loose power. I use it with high-quality digital headphones, and the sound is great. I like that its wide screen, since all my movies are in that format for my home TV. I don't use it for CD's because I have an iPod, so I don't know how well, or bad, it plays CD's. But all-in-all, its not a bad DVD player.

4 out of 5 stars great machnie.......2006-11-04

I have been very happy with this product. My only complaint is that the cable for the car seems to be loose (or has a short?). Movie can stop playing while in route. Recommendations: Speakers could be a little louder. Wish product had a carrying case.

5 out of 5 stars Great.......2006-04-02

Really Great portable DvD player. i got it for christmas of 05. But i wish the remote buttons were all on the player itself becuase i lost my remote so i can do some stuff like fast foward. Really good picture and sound. Overall great portable dvd player

1 out of 5 stars Not good.......2006-02-27

We bought this player for Christmas for our 17 year old son. He has nothing but complaints about it and he hates to complain. The on/off switch does not go off. When we put DVDs in to watch a loud clicking sound begins. At times during movies, the system just stops.
Now it is 60 days later and returning it is a pain.

5 out of 5 stars Took a lick'n and kept on tick'n...........2005-12-04

I bought this model nearly two years ago because it was very inexpensive at the time, and I never expected it to last more than a few months - especially since it was being abused by a 2-year old boy. After about six months, he dropped it off a table onto the hardwood floor, and broke one of the hinges that holds the screen on. I figured that was it, but even with the screen hanging on by the ribbon cable, it still worked perfectly. I was able to fabricate a new hinge pin out of a paper clip, and we used it successfully for another 18 months. Over that period it has spent much of it's life in the back of our SUV, where it has repeatedly been dropped, kicked and stepped on. Unfortunately, my son just stepped on it once again tonight and cracked the screen. He's 4 years old now, so I guess the extra weight was just too much for the poor thing. Hey, at least it still plays music! Maybe we just got lucky with ours, but given our highly abusive experience, I would definitely have to recommend this model - especially for the price. We definitely got $170 of use out of it.
